Are You Listening?

By Stanley Greenfield, RHU

Hello, are you out there? This is Stanley Greenfield calling the chiropractic community. Are you listening? Based on some of the sad tales of woe that I hear, I don't think so. I am here every month as I have been for over 11 years now, giving you ideas that can be put into use immediately that will save you thousands of dollars and many hours of aggravation, and what do you do? You read my ideas and then, as if you had the world by the tail, you just turn the page to see if everyone else is having as much trouble as you are.

The truth is, you aren't listening!

If you had been listening, you would be in full control of your finances and your financial future. You would be happy, and best of all, you would be having fun. Are you having fun yet? Like I said, you haven't been listening!

Dynamic Chiropractic has gone to great expense to set up and maintain a website which allows you to not only read the journal on line, but also to contact each of the columnists and ask them questions. Be totally honest with me now. Have you taken advantage of this wonderful service? It's time to catch up with the rest of the world and get on line. You can use that computer for more than just playing games!

In the majority of my articles, I offer to send you forms so that you can work out your own financial solutions. All you have to do is just put a self-addressed stamped envelope in the mail.

What's your excuse now?

A. I didn't read that far. B. I thought it was a Y2K hoax. C. I didn't want to get involved in a cult. D. I didn't have an envelope. E. I didn't know what a "SASE" was. F. I couldn't afford two stamps.

G. I have my financial situation totally under control.

Do you fit into any of the above categories? If not, then what is your problem? Is it that you don't like money or peace of mind? If that is the case, then you are right: I can't help you. Otherwise, join the thousands who have followed the instructions, received the information that they requested, and are now well on the road to gaining control of their financial futures.

I have offered information on gaining control of your credit card debt; saving on the amount of taxes you pay; putting your kids on the payroll so that Uncle Sam can pay for at least 40% of their education; leasing your equipment from your kids; how and where to find the best disability coverage for chiropractors; which retirement plan is the best for you; how much and what kind of insurance you really need (and what you don't need); how and when to hire employees; leasing vs. buying; getting and keeping patients; the best form of business for you to be operating under; best deals with student loans; how to handle all loans; how to save thousands on your health insurance plans; how to have the government help you pay your employees' salaries; how to best save money; where to save money; why you need to save money; and everything else that can make you successful.

Some months, I receive hundreds of letters, e-mails and telephone calls from doctors all over the world asking for information and help with their financial situations. Now through ChiroWeb.com, you can read my latest article or review past articles. If you have a question, you can fire off an e-mail to me. The information age has arrived and I'm determined to get you there, even if I have to drag you there kicking and screaming!

A new century is almost upon us, and with it will be a new and brighter outlook on chiropractic in the world. It's time to get prepared for both. Instead of lurking in fear of Y2K, adopt a new slogan that should be your mantra from now on - Y2C. Y2C is "yes to chiropractic." Put signs up in your office and start telling your patients to stop fearing Y2K and start focusing on Y2C. Forget the negative and focus on the positive. Y2C is here now, and it's time that you started making sure that you are ready for it. Remember Y2C.
